I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Full of people down 5th avenue, view from 39th Street.

Elon Musk has called for Amtrak and the Postal Service to be privatized. Be warned: this is a call to gut essential public services to pad corporate profits. Here are my 5 rules of thumb for when public services should NOT be privatized.

Unless the rest of the Republican horde can find their conspicuously absent backbones and challenge Trump's self-destructive fiscal foolery, the only economic miracle of the second Trump administration will be that they somehow find a way to blame the inevitable collapse on everyone but themselves.

theindex.media

Trump's Economic Miracle is a 98-Day Recession Speedrun

The honeymoon's over: Trump's reckless trade policies and government layoffs have already triggered a consumer confidence collapse that portends a full-blown recession—and this time, Republicans own every bit of the inevitable economic carnage.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".

Baldwin is always vital, now and forever

James Baldwin: You read something which you thought only happened to you, and you discover that it happened 100 years ago to Dostoyevsky. This is a very great liberation for the suffering, struggling person, who always thinks that he is alone. This is why art is important. Art would not be important if life were not important, and life is important.

There is no DOGE. Full stop. There is the USDS, which may stand for the United States DOGE Service, but American journalism uses acronyms in its reporting so I presume we would never see that phrase. Any major media outlet referring to the USDS as DOGE is inexplicably running ads for a Musk meme.

Idee: Ich zeige euch Bücher, die mich in letzter Zeit bewegt haben. Ohne Kommentar, bloß mit dem Cover. Und ich freue mich, wenn ihr eure aktuellen Lektüren in den Kommentaren mit mir teilt

Foto vom Cover des Buches „Demokratie“ wofür es sich jetzt zu kämpfen lohnt. 26 Antworten auf die Frage, wie wir den Gefahren und Bedrohungen für die Demokratie und die offene Gesellschaft begegnen können
Wahlsiege extremistischer Parteien, Angriffe auf Politiker, offener Antisemitismus und Fremdenhass: Wir spüren immer deutlicher, Demokratie, Grundrechte und Rechtsstaatlichkeit sind keine Selbstverständlichkeit, sie müssen geschützt und verteidigt werden. Die Bedrohung ist konkret, doch was ist es eigentlich genau, das es zu verteidigen gilt und wofür es sich zu kämpfen lohnt? Was steht hier und jetzt auf dem Spiel, für jeden Einzelnen und jede Einzelne? Das ist der Ausgangspunkt für 26 Autorinnen und Autoren, die sich dem Thema auf sehr unterschiedliche, dabei durchweg persönliche und stets erhellende Weise widmen.
Mit Beiträgen von Gabriele von Arnim, Lukas Bärfuss, Marcel Beyer, Jan Brandt, Dietmar Dath, Thea Dorn, Tomer Dotan-Dreyfus, Can Dündar, Dana Grigorcea, Dinçer Güçyeter, Daniel Kehlmann, Per Leo, Michael Maar, Tanja Maljartschuk, Colum McCann, Matthias Nawrat, Ronya Othmann, Necati Öziri, Kathrin Röggla, Sasha Marianna Salzmann, Jochen Schmidt, Clemens J.
